We propose an improved Proton Observed Carbon Edited
(POCE) method, PROCEED, that eliminates splitting due to
short-range
13
C-
1
H
J-coupling. Although the overall SNR for the PROCEED
method is √2 less than that achieved using a decoupled
POCE acquisition, spectral simplification and reduced
metabolite peak overlap is achieved without
SAR-intensive decoupling. The elimination of decoupling
makes in vivo

C
MRS of neuroenergetics and neurotransmitter cycling
potentially viable for studies throughout the human
brain.
